A Thailand trip is incomplete without a visit to Bangkok. Hence, post our incredible time in Phuket and Krabi, our journey through Thailand led us to the bustling city of Bangkok. Our abode in the vibrant city had to be extra special and hence we chose Montien Surawong Hotel. Nestled in the heart of Silom, Bangkok’s most vibrant and exciting district, it is close to all the major tourist attractions, including the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, and the Jim Thompson House. After all, sightseeing and shopping in Bangkok has its own charm.
With the festive season approaching, there’s no better time than now to invest in celebration-appropriate menswear. When scouting for the perfect outfit, it is important to look for something that not only complements the occasion but also resonates with your personal style. Finding an ensemble that seamlessly harmonises the festive spirit with contemporary allure is key to making a lasting impression during this joyous season.
Krabi is no less than a wonderland and we wanted a suitable abode for us. Hence, me and my family chose Centara Ao Nang Beach Resort & Spa Krabi for our stay. The drive from Phuket to Krabi was smooth, all thanks to Lark Holidays from whom we booked our travel (Not only intercity but in city too). Lark Holidays is the most reliable travel operator at Thailand. The drivers arrive on time, cabs are clean and the drivers are well informed.
Our first International trip post Covid had to be special. Afterall we waited for 3 long years to go overseas. We chose to go to Thailand, a destination which I did explore a few years back and absolutely loved it. So why not relive the nostalgia!
Considering how special our trip was, our abode had to be even more special. That’s why we chose Renaissance Phuket Resort & Spa, it’s not a hotel or a resort, it’s the quintessential idyllic island retreat. This 5-star Marriott Bonvoy beachfront lifestyle resort comes with unique design, inspired by nature which offer guests a chance to explore Phuket from a new perspective through spontaneous discovery.
It was hard to resist travelling over the last 8 months. Finally, we thought of taking the plunge, packed our bags, picked the car keys and headed to Agra for a royal stay at ITC Mughal.
This time our trip was extra special as it was our first trip post lockdown after a gap of 8-9 months. The old and heritage city Agra known as the ‘city of Love’ not only has the marvelous Taj Mahal but also has the splendid ITC Mughal. ITC’s luxury collection hotel is situated in close proximity to Taj Mahal and is a tribute to the Mughal builders of the past as this hotel is historic and is inspired by the heritage Mughal monuments like Fatehpur Sikri and Agra Fort.
I love the vivid culture India has where one gets to learn about different religions as well as their festivities. I have enjoyed the splendour of Christmas as much as I enjoy Diwali so when I got an invitation for a Ramadan Food Walk from Novotel Hyderabad Airport we could not say ‘NO’. After a 2 hour flight we landed in Hyderabad, the City of Nizams from where in a few minutes we entered the plush and beautiful hotel. A look around and I was captivated with the serene surroundings filled with greenery and nature.

Team ChicLifeByte was recently invited to Radisson Blu Plaza Delhi and it’s time to share my experience. We tried out the multi cuisine buffet at NYC which was laid out nicely on a big table in the centre with lots of lights & lamps hanging tall from the ceiling so that we can see each dish clearly. I was overwhelmed seeing the great variety on offer. The live kitchen counter was built in orange & black bricks in one corner where the chefs were cooking some amazing recipes. It was a rainy day & I could see trees & plants from the big glass door with natural light coming inside giving a clear view of nature.

To be a mother is to forever have your heart walk around outside your body. The brain of a mother is always at work planning and organizing what is best for her baby. Nutrition, hygiene, sleep, learning skills & behavioral development are few key issues important for overall development of the baby. As a child there is so much to explore everyday, feelings to experience, world to discover & much more to touch and learn. A baby’s skin is so smooth, soft and delicate that extra attention and proper knowledge is required for proper care.
Now ChicLifeByte will talk of spices & the food which I personally love (Punjabi food addict). Amidst the glitter & the brands of Select Citywalk, there stands tall the only Spice region called the Gulati Spice Market which is always full with people & the food, warmth & the village like mitti wala feel because of the warm colours (earthen) used inside the restaurant with lots of jars of spices & bottles and sacks of whole laal mirch kept which every food addict will love. Can’t say more coz I love the place & the music with lots of chic lamps on the top of the table, giving more light & a comfortable plus warm area to dine. There are burnt orange sofas & red chairs inside and at the entrance those big round water filled earthen pots with flowers in them gives a nice feel (peace & divine feel). They even have an open kitchen & it’s amazing to see all the chefs with their chef hats and their responsibility to serve good food & all the waiters in black attire & cooperative enough to ask & serve every dish.
